Match Thread Aston Villa v Leicester FA cup

[Motown Fox]

A game for the neutrals -I don't think so.
Villa are so poor I hope City don't think that second half will be a walk in the park as Tim Sherwood looked like he was going down to give them the hairdryer treatment.

Nigel likewise needs to give City a shakeup too that they need to be more clinical. Ulloa to come on and continue his goal every Cup game record.

Knocky isnt in the squad.

Ah now i get it.. how about another attacking player who can cross.

Not impressive. Where are the days when we would run at players into the box to try and draw a foul or create a chance rather than just punt a hopeful cross in. Added to the lack of creativity we make so many simple mistakes giving away easy passes. Hopefully if we lose Pearson won't hide behind the usual 'played well' screen this time because it has been poor so far. Kramaric drops back far to far to me. If we're playing one up top it either needs to be Ulloa as he's better target man or the midfield needs to get up in support of Kramaric.

Have a look at the squad list in the first post.

Albrighton and Ulloa on and win 2-0.

MOTD bemoaning the low quality....but really what did they expect when they chose the match!

 

[NYC Fox]

How many times has Kramaric lost the ball now?

 

[fitz]

Wow. Villa have one player...and none of our 5 defenders bother to mark him! Good keeping saved the day there.

 

[Motown Fox]

Vital save that

 

[Motown Fox]

Can we at least string a few passes together this half.

 

[NYC Fox]

Have we even managed 3 passed this half?

It's beyond guessing team selections.. almost. But why not play Albrighton? NP's probably itching to put Kramaric out wide!

Konch for Albrighton, Schlupp to defense and Ulloa for Kram .. do it man!

 

[fitz]

Villa are looking like they may threaten to make this game exciting. We need to go 6 or 7 at the back surely?

 

[NYC Fox]

Villa are awful, and we're trying to match them. We have no midfield, no creativity, we're not closing down. Nice hack by Konchesky.

Good idea before he's sent off after that challenge.

 

[LES Fox]

Whay.. Pearson making a change in the 62 min. Ulloa to come on.. now who'll it be for???

 

[glyn]

Mahrez and Schlupp haven't had a touch second half.

 

[LoopisDeLupis]

We need more attacking options. Ulloa to come on for Morgan with Albrighton coming on please.

 

[NYC Fox]

Kramaric can't pass...

Ulloa on for Wasilewski
